The shape of carbon tetrachloride molecule is called

Answer : The hybridization of central atom in is and the shape of molecule is, tetrahedral.

Explanation :

Formula used :

where,

V = number of valence electrons present in central atom

N = number of monovalent atoms bonded to central atom

C = charge of cation

A = charge of anion

Now we have to determine the hybridization of the given molecule.

The given molecule is,

In this molecules, the central atom will be carbon not chlorine because carbon is less electronegative atom than the chlorine.

The number of electron pair are 4 that means the hybridization will be  and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

Hence, the hybridization of central atom in is and the shape of molecule is, tetrahedral.
